[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this icemaker as a replacement. I like the improvements, like the light and built-in water filter, but wish it had come with a water filter.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We bought it in Feb. October it went out with the troubleshooting code F7. The lady at the warrenty line says there is no such code and that we are making it up. After arguing for over 30 minutes, they agree to send someone out. Repairman comes out and unplugs it and plugs it back in. He says there is nothing wrong. The next month when he had to come out again because it was not working, he couldn't figure out what was wrong and said he had to order parts. January we call him again asking where he was, and he said the parts just came in. He is busy until the end of the month. We schedule a date at the end of January when he can come. He stands us up and wont return our call for 2 weeks. We call Whirlpool back and tell them this is unacceptable. They tell us too bad, we are outside of our 1 year factory warrenty so we can buy an extended warrenty for $279 and they will fix it. Otherwise it is on us. All around a miserable experienece. So for the last 8 months we have been using our countertop microwave from a different manufacturer and had no issues.

Not too happy with it!

It's hard to find a microwave that is 1100-1200 watts; that is why I bought this one. There are so many features on this microwave that I never use and the feature buttons are hard to read. The second time I used my convection oven, it blew an internal fuse so I had to have someone come out. While he was fixing it, I asked him why the microwave is so loud....it sounds like something is rolling around the plate inside. He said I needed a new turntable motor so I had to schedule another appointment for that and it was only 2 months old. Another problem I am having is using my presto pop popcorn maker. I can make the first batch just fine but when I go to make a second batch, It won't pop at all. I found out I have to let the bowl cool off completely before it will pop the popcorn. This is the only microwave that this happens to. I've been using a presto pop popcorn maker for over 12 years...almost every night so this is quit frustrating. Why can't they make microwaves like they used to years ago. They had very few features and they lived much longer.

Like like the convection oven feature. It adds a pie baking option to Thanksgiving dinner while the Turkey finishs. I use it everyday for coffee, oatmeal, re-heating dinner, frozen or canned vegatbles, sometimes for lunch on the weekends, warming the ice cream container, popcorn.It does it all great.It is much quieter than my old Maytag.

It is a little loud when using the convection oven, but other then that I love this microwave. I was worried about finger prints, but they are not a problem at all

Terrible quality in a good looking appliance

We bought the unit in March, 8 mos. ago, and yesterday it quit working for the fourth time. We've had the magnetron replaced twice and the control panel once and now it looks like the magnetron again. It is a handsome microwave, but louder than normal and unreliable. We have upgraded our kitchen appliances and this is the absolute worst purchase we've made.
